GIS for web developers

GIS for Web Developers: Adding 'Where' to your Web Applications is now available in paperback—in glorious full color!

This is our first full-color book, and it's a real treat. We might be running a little short on copies, so if you are interested, you're better off buying sooner rather than later.

Congratulations to author Scott Davis on a job well done.
